Research

It is our mission to provide the patient with today's most advanced and effective modalities for diagnosis, treatment and prognosis, and to contribute to the development and implementation of tomorrow's modalities.

For this purpose, the Heart Center Leiden holds several lines of research, covering the entire spectrum of cardiovascular and respiratory disease and medicine. These research lines involve both basic and clinical research and have a strong interactive focus, thereby utilizing novel insights into pathological mechanisms for progress towards future therapeutic and preventive treatment options.
